How much water does the houseplant need?

Watering zamioculcas - when and how?

When pouring, you need a sure instinct and attention. It is difficult to give exact times, because the water requirements of the plants vary depending on the amount of sunlight and the time of year. In winter, for example, the lucky feather needs significantly less water than in hot summer. The following points give you clear indications when it is time to water again:

• Insert a finger about two inches into the ground. Water is only used when the substrate is completely dry.
• If the substrate becomes detached from the edge of the pot, it is high time to water it.
• If you have planted your lucky feather in a clay pot, you can do the knock test: if the pot sounds bright and hollow when you knock against it, it should be poured.

Incidentally, use rainwater or decalcified tap water for watering. To do this, you can boil this or mix it with distilled water in a ratio of 1: 1 or 1: 2 (depending on the degree of hardness).
